I too watched the NHL... I watched this game between periods though... it looked... well South-American... that is, a bit messy.

This is a bit vague, but I remember some football tournament or skill thing being setup last year that was meant to happen at the O2 arena (I think). Quite a few players had signed up to it, Cristiano, Villa etc. Think Sky were going to broadcast it. Though I'm sure I read it got delayed until this year, anyone got any idea what I am on about or if it's happening?
Edit: think it's called A:3K? |

Ya I heard about that last year, but it got cancelled because both Gerrard and Rooney pulled out after England lost in the World Cup. They dropped out b/c they were embarrassed from their performance in South Africa I believe and it threw the whole thing out of whack so they cancelled it.

QUOTE (dst @ Jun 16 2011, 03:20 PM)  I too watched the NHL... I watched this game between periods though... it looked... well South-American... that is, a bit messy. Yes - messy, but less then usual. Ended up 0-0; Santos being the more tactical team, while Penarol tired and tried all game long but couldn't simply hit the goal. Neymar is a bit of a filthy trickster. Didn't like him. Also, Ganso was missing, or at least someone who'd make the final pass for the attack. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Another young primadonna in the making (some would say already made). Now Nilmar, now that's a player I can like. |

I don't like his hair. No doubt it would start a craze over here.

Insert cool title here<-- Group: Moderators Posts: 4,121 Joined: 7-May 06 From: Berlin, Germany Member No.: 1,792 |
Great new Blatter story. He wanted to visit the final of the Womens WC in Frankfurt, Germany. Ordered a refit of the stadium for 10.000 Euros, so that he'd have a better view on the pitch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
Even our total democrat Theo Zwanziger, DFB-President was smart enough to decline... |

What a idiot. |

His wike page makes me laugh and shows what a complete joke the man is. Changes to the game made under Blatter:
*The Silver Goal to replace the Golden Goal *World Cup Winners don't qualify automatically *National Associations must enforce all red cards and suspend players, even if a players innocence is later proven in TV replays as Blatter believes the referees say is final and that mistakes are part of the game - Fortunately the English FA and other associations have refused to follow this one. *Players booked for taking off their shirt after a goal in case it offense conservative nations *No high-altitude games What a complete joke, none of these have changed the game for the better, just stupid things. |
